When his his peapole doubled over, he knew something huge was on the other end of the line must have caught a big fish. His father watched skilled the dock and fish break, eyes appreciated.
Finally, he very 9) gingerly lifted the exhausted fish from the water. Put This is he has seen the biggest one, but it was a bass.
The boy and his father looked at the handsome fish, gills playing back and forth in the moonlight placing the fish playing. Father lit a match and looked at his watch. It was 10 p.m. -- two hours. He looked at the fish, then looked at the boy.

"Father!" Boy shouted.
"There are other fish," said his father.
"But not so big," cried the boy.

He slowly will hook from the big bass of the lip of the fish, then squatted down to put back into the water.
The creature swished its powerful body and disappeared in the water. The boy want to that he would never again see such a great fish.

When we were little, if someone wants us to put back the fish, we will do that, because we have in learning the truth. The right decision in our memory becomes deep and clear. The story we can proudly speak to friends and children listen, not about how to attack and win over some system, but how do the right decision, thus become stronger.
